Play-based learning is often misunderstood as “just play,” but when implemented intentionally, it becomes one of the most powerful tools for supporting early childhood development. In this episode of The Early Years Exchange, Dr. Jason Lody explores what play-based learning looks like in practice, how it supports school readiness, and why strong communication with families is essential to helping them understand its value.
